Do you like Halloween? If you like Halloween you will love our costumes. Today is Halloween. We had a normal day in the morning. Some kids went home for lunch and changed into their costumes at home. Some kids stayed at school for lunch. If you did stay at school, then you could sit wherever you wanted for lunch. The fourth and third graders ate at the same time. You also got 10 more minutes of recess. In our class we had four witches, one cat, one zombie prom queen and Elsa. We also had a Bengal's player, a lumber jack, Indiana Jones, a Navy Seal, Ironman, four video game characters, ninjas and BumbleBee. The teachers at Vermont dressed up as a SWAT Team. SWAT stands for Seriously Wicked Awesome Team. Jess and Myles think that SWAT should stand for Someone Wants a Taco! We will have a parade and a party! HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!What do you think?1) Who are you for Halloween?2) What is your favorite Halloween costume?3) What is your favorite kind of candy?

We have been learning about air and weather. We learned that air is all around us. We made parachutes out of tissues, paper clips, string and stickers. The air got trapped inside the tissue, so it showed that air has resistance. Then Mrs. Lance had a huge container of water, and she put a cup with a piece of paper inside the container. Then she put it under water. The paper stayed dried. We learned that air can hold back water. We trapped the air. We explored with our toys and told everyone what it had to do with air. Weather is made up of heat, water and air. You need hot air and cold air to make a tornado. We had a temperature paper that told us about the temperatures in different places and countries around the world. Learning about air and weather is fun.
